I remember having read an article in Science, I think, around 1987
concerning a study of people who had had hydrocephalus while young but
who seemd to have recovered and lived apparently normal lives but
then, with CAT scans many years later, it was found that a large
proportion of their cerebral hemisphers was missing despite their
normal intelligence.

I remember reading about it but can't find the article.  Anyone have a
reference to this or related work?
